I referred myself as a code monkey once to express my displeasure in a sudden role change for a project I was "supposed" to have deep involvement in.. I was given opportunity to have an active part in nearly every aspect from design to deployment.. Then one day I get word that the Architect is leveraging a 3rd party solution for the backend and he already presented a UX design with the business side. Already prototyped and mocked up the UI and established the technology requirements.. Screens and navigation were essentially done and approved. I was just to hook up the plumbing in the middle tier and maybe some fit and polish work.. While not a trivial piece of work, having the carpet pulled out from under me and reduced to final cleanup and assembly didn't sit well.
So in that context, the name was properly used to highlight exactly how I felt I was treated.

0) Coil needs to be replaced in the house A/C - $3400
1) My computer died this morning. I think the CPU got fried because the cooling fan went tits up while I was at work yesterday.
2) Dogs killed a possum, a cat, and a rabbit this morning. They immediately followed that up with trying to snatch birds out of mid-air (they've succeeded at this on several occasions).

You might have written a such bad code that took too many cycles to execute instructions heating up the CPU, knocking down the cooling fan, which lead to increase in room temperature.. & that led to the A/C overload and an eventual break down.
Looking at all these the dogs went mad and got into serial killing mode. Case closed.

Brilliant!!! So the moral of the story is Bad Code Kills.. It has now officially been linked to Global Climate change, emotional and social instability, economic distress, and erratic (apparently sometimes deadly) behavior in animals.

Believe me, the possum, the cat, and the rabbit had crappier day then yours. Also to avoid waste you could use the coil and a little firewood to grill them.

Losing three small animals, especially if they are pets, is tough. Consoling kids at home, after this, is tougher.

I would estimate the probabilities that one or more of the possum, cat, and rabbit were not pets ... of JSOP ... are high.
Of course, if they were the pets of anybody, I, also, commiserate.

How come you never post about good days bro?
Jeremy Falcon

0) Because I live in America.
1) Good days aren't nearly as interesting.
2) I tried it a couple of times, and the messages were pretty much ignored (nobody else thinks it's interesting either).
3) I'm not one to ponder rainbows and wish for unicorns.

True, but exceptional days are.

Sounds like you need to watch a back-to-back Legally Blonde[^] marathon. A couple days of that, and you'll be golden.

I agree with 0 and 1, but kudos to your dogs for #2, unless of course it's your cat.

Anything on your property is fair game I say. Hell, toss a few squirrels in the yard as a special treat (or a wild hog, if they are in need of a challenge).

Hopefully the dog left enough possum/cat/rabbit for dinner.

On the bright side:
1) You won't freeze any time soon
2) You have more free time to spend with the animals who clearly need some attention
and
3) I have a great Quail Recipe, so you can make a decent meal from the birds?
